Bath resealing at your home in Geldeston
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and black spots in the silicone.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Common questions in Geldeston
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Geldeston
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage

Other services in Geldeston
How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
